Femme Filmmakers Festival: My Life Directed By Nicolas Winding Refn

Danish film-maker Nicolas Winding Refn is married to Liv Corfixen, a woman who is certainly not afraid to pick up a camera and direct her own narrative. In this frustratingly short documentary, Corfixen candidly expresses her concerns for the time and effort her husband puts into his creativity. In this instance, Refn is at a psychological cross-road as his confidence appears to plummet while in pre-production and shooting Only God Forgives.
